After hours at the Museum ; Red deer

SEGMENT 1: After Hours at the Museum. The first segment is a previously shown short film entitled After Hours at the Museum. The previous showing was on May 16, 1954. SEGMENT 2: Red Deer. Lee Crandall, curator emeritus for the Department of Birds, New York Zoological Society, is the guest at a remote broadcast from the Bronx Zoo (i.e. New York Zoological Park). The subject of the program is the differences between the lives of red deer in captivity and in the wild. In the protected environment of the zoo, young red deer are regularly well-fed, safeguarded from predatory animals, exercised, and generally pampered. It appears to be a relatively easy life. On the other side, however, red deer were filmed in a forest in middle Europe. A fawn makes its way alone through the woods after its mother is killed by a wild dog. The fawn is adopted by a doe and grows to maturity. A wonderful shot of an eagle attacking a wild dog is shown in the film.
